3 Ways to Beat the Heat

It’s officially summertime! That means, no school, family vacation and temps in the 80s and 90s. Here are a few tips on how to enjoy the sun without the burn! I've got three ways to keep cool this summer inside.

1. ICE IT

Dive right in a bowl of ice water like these girls! It’s the simplest way to go to numb in an AC-free home. Just be careful you don’t catch pneumonia. For a less severe method, hold two cups of ice in each hand, and place a bucket of ice in between your feet. This will keep your body temperature down without the freeze.

2. FAN YOURSELF

OK, I know what you’re thinking: “DUH!” But for real, grab a fan, put it down with a bucket of ice in front of it, and voila! You have just conditioned the room with ice-cold air!

3. JUMP IN A LAKE

Sunset Bay Beach is a short drive away, so bring some food or drinks and appreciate Lake Erie being right here! Or find a community (or neighbor's) pool to jump in.
